  1. I have been using VLC for a while now and everything seems to be fine for the most part. I guess one other thing that VLC has glitches with that WMP doesnt is have that weird green lines/pixelation on some webm videos. Of course you have to have k-lite plugin installed to even get webm videos to work with wmp but it doesnt have the green scrambled videos. Its not a deal breaker by any means but just wanted to point it out.
  2. One other thing I wanted to point out and not sure if it is a bug or made by design this way. If I add platform videos to the Themes/Default/Videos/Platforms folder, it does not overide what is in the regular Videos/Platforms folder in LB. If it is like that by design it would be a nice feature because I like to keep my regular platform videos in the Videos/Platforms folder and my cinimatic themes in the Themes/Default/Videos/Platforms folder. I guess the ultimate on the wishlist would be to have two different video folders, one for cinimatic and one for regular platform videos and have an option in BigBox to change between the two.
  3. @Jason Carr I mentioned this a few weeks ago in the beta thread but maybe you missed it. I have noticed an issue when you have the background game videos option checked, that when you exit back out of a game the video does not start back automatically. It only happens with background game videos as all the other views work correctly and the game video starts back automatically. I Tested it out with wmp and vlc.
  4. Great job as these are very much apprciated!
  5. Yes I see it now in the images folder...everything seems to be working as it should.
  6. @Hexxxer Awesome additions to 2.0. I love how this theme is so clean and beautiful. I read the channel log that you added some videos but there is not a videos folder in the theme folder although I do see a new background animated video in BigBox.
  7. @CriticalCid This is truly awesome as I have been wanting this for a long time. Thank you for doing all of this and putting in all together!!
  8. @Jason Carr One thing I noticed when I downloaded the new beta is the Background folder was not automatically created in the Music folder. Its not a big deal as I just created one manually but it could maybe confuse new users who do not keep up with the beta thread but other than that it seems to be working great thus far. Awesome addition and great job!!
  9. Wow...that is looking really awesome!!
  10. Yes, the plugin for LaunchBox seems to be 100% working correctly in all my testing so far. Very happy
  11. You are welcome andI am not sure if have seen this in the downloads section but @imdavid555 did a upload of some of @BakerMan classic older themes as well that you might be interested in.
  12. @cormegaman If you look in the download section in the CleanBG theme he has a version of the theme that is called CleanBGnosystems that you can download and after you download it and open up the zipfile the fanart that you are looking for with no systems are in the CleanBGnosystems\Images\Platforms\Fanart folder.
  13. Awesome theme @CriticalCid!!! Great job as I am really enjoying it!
  14. Sounds awesome....really looking forward to the new version!
  15. @Jason Carr It looks like the bug is back on certain views that when you exit out of a game the game video does not start back automatically playing as it just shows a screenshot. The game videos start back automatically and work great on both coverflow views that have video but it does not work on the game wheels view or game background videos when you exit a game. It is the same with vlc and wmp as I tested both of these out. I was meaning to tell you before you got the official release out but I just got a chance to do so.
  16. You are supposed to be able to switch ultrastik maps with ledblinky but I was never 100% successful in doing so but other users have been. The only way I got it to work 100% was to use rocketlauncher along with this app: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=145513.0
  17. I love the unexpected surprises!! The new sound additions are great and the addition of sound packs is excellent!! The faster startup time is much needed and AWESOME!!!!
  18. @Styphelus Yes they are other users reporting that same issue over on this thread.
  19. @Jason Carr I forgot to mention this a few days ago but there is one thing I noticed when I was importing some Steam games. I have a platform called Steam and I have all my Steam games on that platform but occasionally I do purchase some new games and want to import them to that platform. Well I went through the Steam import process again and it found the 4 additional games that I purchased in my Steam library which is great. But instead of LaunchBox importing them to my Steam platform, it created a Windows platform and imported them to it instead of my Steam platform. I of course have Steam to scrape as Windows but I thought I remember last week you had mentioned that this issue was resolved to where it did not change the platform name is the reason I bring it up and just wanted to let you know.
  20. Sounds very cool...looking forward to trying it out!
  21. @viking These look awesome and thanks for adding the "s" on the end. These are very high quality and look great on my arcade cabinet! Top notch work as always!!
  22. @Jason Carr Since the official LedBlinky plugin has been released I have noticed that it now takes about 4 to 5 seconds before the startup led animation begins when you first startup BigBox. I have contacted arzoo about this and he said it is due to ledblinky is reading the launchbox.xml at startup and the bigger xml you have it will cause more slowdown since everything is stored in one xml. I was wondering what your thoughts were on this and have you gave some consideration to splitting the platform xml's up by system? I know that it would probably be a big undertaking but I feel like it would boost BigBox performance so much especially with startup time and while scrolling through the menus and such.
  23. @Jason Carr I have been having a lot of problems with the escape button as well in BigBox since the new release. Sometimes in BigBox I have to hit escape several times before it registers. For instance if I am backing out of the games menu into the platforms menu it most of the time works but then when I try to hit escape again to go into the options menu it will not work a lot of the time unless I scroll up on the wheel and then hit escape. It had gotten so bad I was beginning to suspect I needed a new escape button for my arcade cabinet. Stangely enough it seems to affect my arcade cabinet with my I-pac as a keyboard controller more so than my gaming pc with a regular keyboard Do you think it could be related to the new safeguards you put in for VLC?
  24. I like to keep my arcade platforms seperated out into the main companies that produced the games. For instance I also like to group my CPS1,CPS2,and CPS3 all together into a Capcom Classics wheel. And everything else that does not go on these wheels down below goes into the Arcade Classics platform. I was wondering if you would mind creating these wheels for me with the silver ring. Thanks everyone!
  25. @Jason Carr I just fired up BigBox again to see which views I was on to report back here and gave the videos another test run with vlc for another 15 to 20 mins and honestly I could not produce the double audio again. I was trying just as hard as before going into games view and back out to platforms like a raging animal again and could not make it happen. I had nothing different in my setup as before so I am puzzled but I am glad and happy to see. VLC has come a long way and I think it is ready for primetime and maybe even the default since it supports steam webm videos!
